Question

-34x+6=-28
I need to learn how to solve for x

Answer 1

Your answer is x = 11/17

Explanation:

I gotchu!

Alright first, subtract 6 on both sides. After doing so, your equation should look like:

-34x = + 22

Then, divide -34 on both sides. Do not divide x though! The equation will look like:

x= -22/34

Now, let's simplify the answer. We can divide 22 and 34 by 2 so we will do that.

After simplifying, it should be 11/17.

Finally, keep it improper because you always should keep fractions improper when doing this.

Your answer is x = 11/17

Answer 2

x=1

Explanation:

-34x+6=-28

-6 -6

-34x=-34

-34 -34

x=1

Subtract 6 from both sides. on the left the 6 will be canceled out and on the right -28-6= -34

Than you divide -34 on both sides on the left the -34 will be canceled and on the right -34 divided bt-34 is positive 1. So x equals 1.
